Write a Pantoum Sonnet contest entry
Recognized |
A Pantoum Sonnet is a unique and beautiful form, which is a combination of a Pantoum and a Sonnet.
Like a sonnet, it has to be written in iambic pentameter, 10 syllables per line, 5 metered feet, three quatrains and a rhymed couplet.
The rest of it is a Pantoum. A Pantoum consists of rhymed quatrains. The trick here is that a second and a fourth line of each quatrain repeats as the first and third line of a subsequent quatrain.
For the rhymed couplet - the first line repeats the first line of the first stanza, and second line repeats the third line of the first stanza.
Sorry the 'title' appears as black on black - a glitch in the system that I can't seem to get FS to understand, despite at least 3 e mails back & forth!!
